Re: WTB: Risers

$25, very tall and light. If interested send me an email address to send photos back.

I also have Voile 3 pin bindings, Rottefella TRP release kit and TeleBulldog 3 pins available. I went to the BD Push when Garmont went down - no pin holes so I've gone to cable.

I usually use the La Sportiva Hi5, 178 cm, 135-105-125 but only weigh 150 lbs. I switch back and forth freely according to the rhythm and roll of the conditions. In deep powder, most people don't know what kind of turns I have been doing. I've been at it long enough (decades) to only care about enjo...

Re: more tele racing advice...

There are two standard events, GS and Classic as far as points goes. Otherwise there can be slalom, moguls, etc. The GS is the same as alpine but may have a jump and even be a dual race.
